LOAD YOUR PRESETS
Unzip your download. Skip any __MACOSX folder and any file starting with ._ (Mac leftovers). Open the Presets folder and use Import Patch to load each .prst file into an empty patch. On a factory-fresh Stage, patches A26-1 to A60-5 are empty. Ignore the A01 at the start of each file name. On a Stage, A01-1 to A21-5 hold Hotone's factory patches.
